EXCLUSIVE: Conservative Group Announces Seven-Figure Early Vote Push In Ohio, Endorses Bernie Moreno For Senate

The conservative Sentinel Action Fund (SAF) announced on Wednesday its first seven-figure investment in Ohio to encourage early voting, and endorsed Republican Senate candidate Bernie Moreno, the 🏢Daily Caller News Foundation first learned.

SAF’s announcement is the first of multiple seven-figure investments it plans to make in Ohio this cycle, with the super PAC also launching a “Skip The Line Ohio” website urging Republicans to request and return their absentee ballot, according to the group. Moreno secured the GOP Senate nomination in March, beating out two other prominent Republicans to take on longtime Democratic Sen. Sherrod Brown in November.

“Ohio is a critically important state for Republicans to retake the Senate majority and make a change in Washington,” SAF President Jessica Anderson said in a statement. “Sherrod Brown has failed his constituents — voting for Biden’s failed economic agenda, open borders, and soft-on-crime laws. This November, voters will have an opportunity to replace Sherrod Brown and bring new leadership to the U.S. Senate by electing conservative champion Bernie Moreno.”

“To support the right ideas, Republicans must maintain our calls for election integrity, and we must also have a robust election infrastructure to reach Ohioans who embrace early voting and are ready to cast their ballot for Moreno,” Anderson added.

Along with the website, SAF will engage in door knocking, texting and digital advertisements to turn out the early vote, according to the super PAC. SAF conducted a messaging poll among Ohio voters in early April, which found that 74% of Trump supporters were more likely to vote early after being told that the former president is now using the phrase “too big to rig.”
